hapter 633 Like a Dog
Josie returned to the Mason Garden, where Dexter had already arrived before her.
“Where is Mr. Russell?” Josie asked the maid, placing her bag down and removing her coat.
“He’s in the study having a meeting with someone,” Julie replied, and then she hung up Josie’s coat in the closet.
Josie’s eyebrows furrowed as she asked, “There’s a guest? Who is it?”
“I heard Mr. Russell referred to him as Wyatt.”
Wyatt was here. What was he doing here so late?
Josie nodded in understanding. “Please help me prepare three cups of chamomile tea and send it to my room once I’m done showering.”
“Okay.”
The study was filled with confidential documents related to the Russell Group. Dexter trusted Josie implicitly, so the documents were not kept in a safe.
Wyatt stood only a few steps away from the stack of files, but he could not see their contents.
Josie brought the tea to the study. As she was about to knock on the door, she saw Wyatt kneeling on the marble floor with a loud thud. His gaze was fixated on the calm, composed man across from him.
“Dex, my father crossed the line foolishly, but he will change. Please give him another chance,” Wyatt pleaded sincerely.
“Please, for the sake of Grandpa, let’s forget about what happened. After all, we’re family. Dexter, please forgive us.”
He was sweating profusely, facing Dexter’s inscrutable expression. There was no guarantee what Dexter would do.
Her heart raced, its thundering beats echoing in her ears. Although Wyatt feared Dexter, he had always carried himself with a dignified and confident air. It must have been a serious problem if he was willing to kneel in front of Dexter.
He sat stiffly in his chair, his jaw clenched, and his hands were white-knuckled as he gripped hold of a pen. “Wyatt,” he said, his voice eerily calm, “I had the highest hopes for you out of everyone in the family. But you’ve disappointed me this time.”
